Luckily the library really can solve the books dilemma! I’m very buy-nothing oriented — sometimes we end up there (and realize it isn’t as bad or hard as it might seem). I hope you have a good start to your new year!

We can all take a cue from you, Amy! I’m looking forward to using what I have, especially those art supplies; I always feel so sorry for them, sitting there and waiting to be used. And there are a lot of great books to be discovered in the library! I’m looking forward to this nothingness 😹 Happy new year! 🎆🎊🎈

Oh Suzan, you’ve touched a nerve with this one! I already have too many clothes, and I know it, but I lust after a new warm sweater. But inspired by you, I am NOT going to buy it. And I’m pretty sure I can get through January with you. Count me in. Buying nothing new in January except food (obv) and recyclable trash bags. Love to you.

Woo HOO! My first Buy Nothing Buddy! Thank you, Virginia! I know that lust for a new sweater, new Birkenstocks, new ANYTHING. I think we can resist. And remember, you're allowed to buy "new to you" via thrift--bet there's some really nice sweaters there, if you get too lusty! :D
